WooCommerce: Add Content Under “Place Order” Button @ Checkout
Adding content to the WooCommerce Checkout page is very easy.
All you need is to identify the position where you want to show your content (by using my WooCommerce Checkout Visual Hook Guide) and then create a short PHP function that prints on screen the content you need.
In this example, we will see how to add some content below the “Place Order” button on the WooCommerce Checkout page. This could be very helpful, for example, to print your GDPR-compliant Privacy Policy message and make sure the user is aware about the use of personal data.

Please let me know in the comments if everything went as expected. I would be happy to revise the snippet if you report otherwise (please provide screenshots). I have tested this code with Storefront theme, the WooCommerce version listed above and a WordPress-friendly hosting.

Hi there,
Thank you for your information. Can this also be used to load javascript?
I would like to add some javascript code under the place order button.

If you are writing code, please wrap it between shortcodes: [php]code_here[/php]. Failure to complying with this (as well as going off topic, not writing in English, etc.) will result in comment deletion. You should expect a reply in about 2 weeks - this is a popular blog but I need to get paid work done first.

Hey Mike, thanks for your comment! Yes, of course, you can echo a script via PHP, that’s no problem 🙂
Works great, thanks! Easy ti edit for my own message
Nice 🙂
Rodolfo – Works great! Thanks for another money saving modification.
Tim
Great 🙂
Thanks for the tip. Works like a charm.
What about WPML, how would this translate?
Hey Lambert, thanks for your comment! In order to make a string translatable you have to wrap it in a __() function: https://codex.wordpress.org/I18n_for_WordPress_Developers#Translatable_strings – hope this helps 🙂
Hi,
When I add the snippet to my site, it breaks the site and every page is blank. Have you had any issues?
Sorry, I had this snippet already on my site. The 2 instances collided and broke the site. All fixed.
Excellent 🙂
